We are all entitled to our opinions and the more people that express them the better informed the debate will be. People who take fundamentally different views can, of course, send their views in quite separately. It will be some kind of miracle if we all agree every dot and tittle and the proposal as it stands should not be regarded as cut in stone. It is not the final version.

However, I am far from convinced that the long bore tunnel is the best option, but I am convinced that leaving the A303 as it is is the very worst option. Such fundamental differences could wreck our submission and that is why we have deferred the A303 until Phase1 is complete. Surely we can reach agreement with issues of access, visitors' centre, landscape etc without falling out over the wretched road.

Maybe if we can switch emphasis onto what's best for Stonehenge by way of this intiative, we can make a positive difference.

By the looks of things, TimeWatch are going to be rejecting all of the options laid on the table for the A303. Other campaigns are going to have their own ideas and therefore support for this initiative will to a certain degree rest on what it says about the A303. Surely that is understandable? If the A303 is not menitoned, then the proposal stands on its own and its a good one - a simple and easy to deliver step forward for Stonehenge, regardless of what ultimately happens to the A303.
